LHS
To fit the crash protectors and drill the fairings, the fairings must first be removed from the
•
motorcycle.
•
To do this, start by removing the plastic panel under the nose of the bike by removing the four
plastic fasteners with a Phillips screwdriver, as arrowed in pictures 4 & 5.
Remove this plastic panel from the motorcycle.
•
To remove the left side fairing, start by removing the push/pull rivet that secures the inside black
•
plastic in place in the area around the top of the radiator, as arrowed in picture 6. Simply pull the
rivet head to remove the rivet.
Remove the three bolts that secure the lower edge of the fairing to the bellypan, as shown in
•
picture 7.
Remove the two bolts that secure the top edge of the fairing to the nose, as shown in picture 8.
•
Remove the bolt that secures the fairing to the black plastic that covers the intake tunnel, as shown
•
in picture 9.
The fairing can now be removed. Gently unclip the lower corner of the side fairing from the front of
•
the bellypan and work your way along the edge, unclipping the fairing tabs from the slots in the
bellypan as you go along, as shown in picture 10.
•
At the top rear corner of the fairing, where it meets the frame, there is a plastic prong that fits into
a rubber mount that needs to be lifted upward to release, as shown in picture 11.
With this out, the fairing should be free to slide forward and out to remove from the motorcycle, as
•
shown in picture 12. Picture 13 shows the final plastic mounting points on top of the intake tunnels
that the fairing needs to be removed from and the inner radiator cowling plastic will come away
with the fairing.
Remove the engine bolt and insert the marking tool (ITEM 9) into the boss so that the point on the
•
end sits roughly against where the fairing panel sits when refitted to the motorcycle, as shown in
picture 14.
Re-fit the fairing panel to the motorcycle and gently press the inner black panel in towards the
•
marking tool to leave an impression on the panel. Remove the fairing from the motorcycle and
there will be a mark on the inside, as shown in picture 15.
Remove the black plastic panel from the main fairing by removing the two plastic fasteners, as
•
arrowed in picture 16.
Using a 28mm holesaw cutter, very carefully drill a pilot hole on the marked point (only drill pilot
•
hole).
•
Re-fit the black panel to the fairing and refit to the motorcycle, ensuring that the marking tool is
positioned within the centre of the drilled hole. Once happy, remove once again from the bike and
remove the black panel from the main fairing.
From the outside surface, carefully open the hole using the 28mm hole saw cutter, as shown in
•
picture 18. This will break through a rib on the inner surface. Debur the hole using a sharp knife or
emery paper taking care not to mark the outside of the fairing.
Re-fit the inner black panel to the main fairing using the two fasteners and re-fit the fairing to the
•
motorcycle as shown in picture 19.
The hole in the black panel should now align with the bolt hole. To remove the material from the
•
main fairing panel, mark on a semi-circle using a marker pen and align with the existing hole. Use a
dremel type tool (do not use a hole saw as the centre cannot be located as it's on the edge of the
panel) to remove the remaining material (this can either be done on or off the motorcycle).
Remove the marking tool.
•
Ensure the fairing is correctly positioned on all its mounting points before following the reverse
•
procedure of removal to re-fit all the mounting bolts.
•
Push the LHS bolt/assembly (100mm bolt & 18mm spacer) you prepared earlier into the engine
mount hole and thread by hand to avoid cross threading.
